Chapter 2
It was after nine in the evening as Reuben Kinkade parked his car in front of the darkened house at 698 Sycamore Road, the home of the singing group he had managed for the past year. Who would have thought a singing family group called the Partridge Family would have become an overnight hit? He was getting requests for more information about the family and decided to have the mother, Shirley Partridge, make some home movies to help with promotions. He picked up the 8mm video camera from the seat next to him and got out of the car. He was supposed to drop the camera off earlier but had gotten stuck in a meeting that had gone late.
The house was dark. Everyone must be asleep, though it was still a bit early. He thought about knocking anyway, but decided to leave the camera next to the back door where Shirley could get it in the morning. As he made his way to the back of the house, he thought about Shirley Partridge. From the moment he had met her, he could not get her out of his mind. She was beautiful and despite having five children, had a knockout body. But he knew that he could never act on his urges because he wanted to continue to be their manager especially now that the money was rolling in.
The backyard was very secluded and private. A light was on in the family room. Perhaps someone was awake and he could give the movie camera to them. He peeked through the window and almost dropped the camera in shock. Shirley was kissing someone! It looked like she had just taken a bath because she had a bathrobe on and she was sitting on the couch facing the window. He could only see the back of the man’s head as they kissed. Then Shirley pushed him away and Reuben had a second shock. It was Keith!
Reuben watched as they talked, then Shirley opened her robe revealing her perfect breasts. He began to get an erection and moved to adjust it when he realized that the movie camera was loaded and ready to shoot. He turned it on and began to film. This home movie was going to be much better than he had expected. He filmed Shirley sucking her son until he came in her mouth. He continued to film until they finished making love on the family room floor and left the room. Reuben then shut down the movie camera and got back in his car, his mind whirling with thoughts and plans.
The next morning, Shirley Partridge walked down the sidewalk to Reuben’s office, wearing a short black skirt, a thin form fitting long sleeved shirt, and black boots. She normally didn’t dress like this, but after her night with Keith, she felt her sexuality reborn. A low cut lacy bra helped accentuate her breasts and she enjoyed the looks she got from men as she walked down the street, her eyes hidden behind a pair of dark sunglasses. A construction crew was less discrete and whistled at her as she walked by. Looking at the muscled bodies covered in sweat caused her to become flush with desire. What’s happening to me? She wondered to herself.
She walked into Reuben’s office. The shades were closed and Reuben was working on a movie projector on the coffee table in front of his couch. He was wearing his usual turtleneck shirt and jacket.
“Hello Reuben. What’s this urgent meeting about?”
Reuben stood and noticed immediately a change in Shirley. He had been her manager for a year and he had never seen her dress like this before. Apparently, her night with Keith had done something to her.
“Have a seat here.” He motioned to the couch and turned off the lights. “I have to show you something.”
He sat next to Shirley in the darkened room and turned on the projector. The image flickered on the wall opposite them. There was the countdown and then a blurry picture of a couple could be seen kissing on the wall. Reuben focused the image and Shirley gasped as she saw herself making out with Keith in their family room. Shirley went numb, her eyes fixed on the wall as the projector clattered noisily.
